case

Lao Wang borrowed 200000 yuan from Xiao Ming when he was alive, but Xiao Ming asked for it many times and didn't pay it back. After Lao Wang died, Xiao Ming found Lao Wang's son, Xiao Wang, and took him to the court, asking Xiao Wang to bear the repayment responsibility for his father's 200000 yuan loan. Xiao Wang said in court that he had given up inheriting his father's inheritance, so he should not bear his father's debts. Excuse me, should Xiao Wang be responsible for Lao Wang's debts?

unwanted. Article 1161 of the Civil Code stipulates that the successor shall pay off the taxes and debts payable by the decedent according to law to the extent of the actual value of the estate obtained. This restriction does not apply to the part exceeding the actual value of the estate that the heir voluntarily repays. If a successor waives inheritance, he may not be responsible for paying the taxes and debts that the decedent should pay according to law.
